Great mythological setting that is always fun to return to. Obviously it will really benefit from complete art etc, which I hope to see.
Hard to score meaningfully, as a day or two's work on any aspect would completely transform what's here. I like the pyramidal map structure and the overall premise - good luck getting the system together and going!
This is a fun premise and setting! I'm excited to see how it comes together. Mostly just not getting full marks because of it's current level of completion but I hope to see it when it's finished!
Art: Non-existent at present.
Writing: What is there is pretty good, but obviously there is a lot missing. One typo: "steel blood"
Game Design: Not sufficiently complete to rate, but I like the idea of an Ancient Greece Panic Engine game.
Theme: It's definitely Ancient Mythology, but also definitely not Mothership, so I can only give half marks.
Layout: Looks like it will be easy to follow once complete. Follows a similar structure to the ones I've done.
Utility: Not finished, ergo not very usable.
Favorability: I don't personally mind, but I feel like some would find it questionable to submit something that is both incomplete and not for the game the jam is organized around in order to promote a separate project. I think the project itself is interesting, and the adventure looks like it will be fun. I don't feel like I can give more than three stars in any category, though, as I'm imagining the emotional experience of being the author of one of the weaker submissions and losing to 5x "[NPC NAME]" and a bunch of lorem ipsum.
Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback! Everything you said is totally fair. The hack I’m writing wouldn’t exist without TripTech3 (specifically the theme), so I worked with Graham to find a workable solution to show something for my three weeks of jamming. Both the hack and this module are going to get a lot of post-jam polish. ^^;;;
Thanks again, and I look forward to checking out your stuff, too!
Ah, okay. I didn't realize you'd run this by Graham beforehand, but that makes sense.
